Question 5

Do you charge athletes a fee to mentor them?

Accepted Answer

No

Question 6

Why don't you charge for your services?

Accepted Answer

We purposely do not charge a fee in order to communicate to the mentee unconditional love and care.  We are not serving them because they are paying us to or we are not showing up because we are being paid.  We are serving them and showing up because God has called and equipped us for this work.  Money can skew motives.  We want our motives to stay pure.

Question 7

Don't mentees need to pay something so they keep showing up?

Accepted Answer

Not in our experience. Care, love, interest, support, guidance, non judgement, trust, and consistency keeps them showing up.  Seeing their own life start to change keeps them showing up.  As of today, 240 individuals have engaged in Season Builder.  216 have completed the 13 week program.  That is a 90% completion rate.  This proves money is not necessary to keep them engaged.
